you thought that the naruto vs gaara fight was good?
naruto usually only wins because hes meant to. the opponents always outstyle him and he wins just because he lasts - its like watching a fight where someone gets on and just is up against the ropes the whole fight then pulls one punch and wins, thats nothing compared to a even battle like Orochimaru vs the 3rd.

Orochimaru vs the 3rd beats naruto vs gaara on so many levels, even the flashbacks are better. I mean you get to see Orochimarus motivation and his twisted experiments, what more could you want to see?

another reason to hate Naruto fights is that the anime always sensationalizes them, expect naruto vs gaara to go for near 8 episodes
